About MEMAG

The MEMAG is an organization consisting of three historical fencing schools which instruct students in the fighting system developed by the 14th century German fencing Grandmaster, Johannes Liechtenauer. We place a high emphasis on the study of historical texts and the practice of techniques contained therein as the foundation of our training. It is our goal to educate our students and the public about HEMA, as well as train our students to be efficient Martial Artists of which Meister Liechtenauer himself would have been proud.

Events

Along with NYHFA and the xKDF Network, MEMAG is a host of the annual Fechtschule New York event in New York State. In addition to this, founding member Cory Winslow is a Board Member of the annual Longpoint HEMA Tournaments and Workshops in Maryland.

Affiliations

MEMAG is a member of the HEMA Alliance.
